Easy Chicken Stroganoff with Yoghurt


Can you believe, The whole Mid Valley mega mall don't sell sour cream. I've seen it thousands of time but when it comes to buying it, it's not available. So sad but lucky got yoghurt. Substitute.

Today I made chicken stroganoff because we can't be eating too much red meat.

Recipe:

15 Chicken Fillet
2 Onions Diced
2 Garlic cloves diced
1 cup of fresh button mushroom or Shiitake sliced
3 tablespoon of all purpose flour (Or 2 tablespoon if you like it runny)
3 tablespoon butter
4 cups of chicken broth
1 cup of fresh yoghurt
salt & pepper

Direction:

Pat dry the chicken fillet and season with salt and pepper. Heat up 1 tablespoon of the butter and brown the chicken both side and put aside. Put another tablespoon of butter on the same pan and saute the onions and mushrooms. Once soft, put aside and put in the last tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the flour to make a roux the add the chicken stock and whisk and whisk until there's no flour clumps. Once the sauce is smooth, add the mushroom and chicken and seasoned with salt & pepper.

Lastly, because it is yoghurt, switch off the fire and combine the yoghurt with the rest of the ingredient and stir until smooth. Season with more salt & pepper if needed.

** Don't cook yoghurt because it will separate under fire.
